Since it's a good sized leak it should be fairly easy to locate using a mechanics favourite tool... eyes. Might need a mirror and torch to make the looking a little easier.

I did go underneath it, I used 2 ramps to elevate the front wheels and used a creeper. With a flashlight, I've noticed that coolant was forming around the lip of the oil pan and was dripping from the front and rear. As much as I can- the first thing I checked were the hoses, inlet, outlet and from the reservoir. When I turn the engine off it stops leaking/ dripping.
